🚗 From joyriding in 1980s Ireland to AI-enhanced traffic stops, the #Cars and #Crime Symposium brought together leading thinkers on topics such as #drink-driving, #speeding, and #policing. 🔗Explore how this symposium reshaped understandings of safety, urban life, and justice.👇 tinyurl.com/mwtrttr2

Background of cars in a traffic jam. #news flare. Text reads: ‘The Cars and Crime Symposium
was sponsored by the
Centre for Criminal Justice Studies
and held on the 31 July 2025 in a community café in Ilkley.
As the first of its kind, this symposium brought together leading criminologists, legal scholars, geographers and road safety experts to discuss how vehicles, drivers, and crime intersect in shaping public safety.’
